North Dakota dealership fuels school meals with car sales


DEVILS LAKE, N.D. — Staff at one car dealership in North Dakota are giving back to the community the best way they know how — by selling cars.

For the second year in a row, Devils Lake Cars is donating money to the Devils Lake Public School System.

During the month of November, they’ll donate more than $100 per car sold to the school’s Angel Fund.

That will cover the cost of more than 30 meals in the school system. The donations also cover negative balances for student’s school lunches. You can also donate to the the Angel Fund year-round.

“We try to do things differently being in a smaller community,” Ben Bergstrom, the co-owner at Devils Lake Cars, said. “It’s a cool promotion not just because we get to give back to the community but also how the team gets involved.”

Last year, they raised more than $20,000 dollars, covering nearly 6,000 lunches and were able to eliminate almost all outstanding balances.

Retired Game & Fish Director facing new charge of molesting a child – KVRR Local News


MANDAN, N.D. (KVRR-KFGO) – Former North Dakota Game & Fish Director Terry Steinwand has been charged with molesting a child.

The Class “A” misdemeanor was filed after a Morton County District Court judge rejected a proposed plea agreement to a felony charge and prosecutors dismissed the charge while retaining the right to file an amended charge.

Steinwand is from Mandan. The 72-year-old is now charged with one count of sexual assault-offensive contact. The charge carries a maximum sentence of one year in jail.

Steinwand was originally charged in September, 2025, when police say he admitted to sexual misconduct.

SBHE to Review Ray Richards Alterations


(KNOX) – The North Dakota Board of Higher Education is being asked to weigh in on the  reconstruction of Ray Richard’s Golf Course in Grand Forks.  The upgrades and deferred maintenance improvements are the result of the pending DeMers Avenue/42nd Street Underpass project.

UND sold 6.5 acres of the nine hole course to the North Dakota Department of Transportation for the grade separation. During the road construction the golf course will be realigned and reduced to a par 34 course.  UND will also address underground utilities and irrigation systems.  The total cost is around 4.5 million dollars.

The course will close for the 2026 and 2027 seasons.  The goal is to reopen in 2028.  SBHE is expected to approve the design at its April 30th meeting.

Crews are expected to begin preliminary work on the $90 million dollar underpass project this week.  The initial phase will have minimal impacts to traffic on both 42nd Street and DeMers Avenue.  Larger impacts are expected later this summer.
